Android scale animation

Scale the image 3 times bigger.
The first two params 1f, 3.0f says the width starts from the original length and ends with 3 times longer in length.
The secone two params 1f, 3.0f says the height starts from the original length and ends with 3 times longer in length.
The last two params ivWheel.getWidth() / 2.0f, ivWheel.getHeight() / 2.0f, indicates the povit point of the scaleing, in this case, the scaling goes from the center of the image and scale outwards.

ScaleAnimation scaleAnimation = new ScaleAnimation(1f, 3.0f, 1f, 3.0f, ivWheel.getWidth() / 2.0f, ivWheel.getHeight() / 2.0f);
scaleAnimation.setDuration(3000); // scale to 3 times as big in 3 seconds
scaleAnimation.setInterpolator(this, android.R.interpolator.accelerate_decelerate);
ivWheel.startAnimation(scaleAnimation);
scaleAnimation.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {
    public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
        Log.d("ScaleActivity", "Scale started...");
    }

    public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
        Log.d("ScaleActivity", "Scale ended...");
    }

    public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {

    }
});
